## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[Judging the Judges: A Systematic Study of Position Bias in LLM-as-a-Judge](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/shi-2025-judging-judges-systematic-study-position/)** *(2025 · 71 citations)* LLM judges are widely used as a cheaper substitute for human evaluators, but they often favour an answer because of where it sits in the prompt rather than because of what it says.
2. **[SoundMind: RL-Incentivized Logic Reasoning for Audio-Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/diao-2025-soundmind-rl-incentivized-logic-reasoning/)** *(2025 · 11 citations)* Large audio-language models (LALMs) can understand speech, but they are weak at multi-step logical reasoning.
3. **[What Makes a Good Curriculum? Disentangling the Effects of Data Ordering on LLM Mathematical Reasoning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/jia-2026-what-makes-good-curriculum-disentangling/)** *(2026 · 4 citations)* Curriculum learning, which sorts training examples from easy to hard, is often used to improve LLM reasoning.
4. **[Tailoring Memory Granularity for Multi-Hop Reasoning over Long Contexts](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/qing-2026-tailoring-memory-granularity-multi-hop/)** *(2026 · 3 citations)* Answering multi-hop questions over long documents requires connecting facts that appear far apart, while ignoring distracting text.
